I purchase a Truck with a 550 1LW. It was missing the ECM I had a 6ts ecm and put it on it. From my calculations I'm down .5mpg and the truck will only make 24 LBs of boost. There is no boost leaks. It has a new air to air and new turbo. Will the 6TS ecm cause this ?

was the 6ts a 550 if not may not be getting enough fuel

Chances are the ecm from the 6TS is from a configuration with bigger injectors. You can run the ecm fine but your probably down 100hp even if the 6TS the ecm came off was also rated at 550hp. If its rated at 475hp your gonna be down a significant amount of power, this is why your experiencing low boost.
Have the ecm flashed to a 550 1LW file or a 600 5DS file and you'll be good to go. -
yes it a 6ts 550 ECM... my buddy has Cat ET what is needed to flash it ?
-
yup....6TS should have had 58 injectors stock instead of the 57's. The 6TS program you are using is designed for injectors that flow 25% more fuel......so you are down on fuel 25% with the smaller injectors.

He'll need the proper flash file as well as a password creator and the know how to do it.
Good chance if when you ask him if he can flash your ecm and he asks how he would do that, hes not gonna be able to. -
He dosent have a password creator , Is there anyway i can send my file to find out what the password is and flash it with his cat et
-
Not possible.
You are prompt to put the password into the ecm after the flash file has been installed and until you put it in the truck will only idle -
anyone have a password creator ?
